| What tools do folks use for protocol decoding? |

| Lathe26:
I'm curious what tools folks use for offline protocol decoding after they have captured data from an oscilloscope or a logic analyzer? For example, I have a Rigol oscilloscope that can save capture data to a file. While it natively supports a handful of protocol decodings, there are many it doesn't and does not appear to allow end-users to write their own. I am looking at loading the data into Sigrok/Pulseview since it has many protocol decoders, they are written in Python, and it's open source. However, there might be alternative tools out there. |

The best I know is sigrok. Sometimes wireshark, too. I remember from some years ago sigrok/Pulseview was starting to support Rigol oscilloscopes. Should be able to work using oscilloscope's SCPI, so without exporting to a file, but I didn't check how good the support is in practice. https://sigrok.org/wiki/Supported_hardware |

I don't do a lot of protocol decoding, but when I do.. I have a totally official, definitely not Chinese knockoff I bought for $12 from eBay, Saleae Logic. Their software is pretty good. |

I just use my Saleae (legit) to save the capture and export the decoded data into excel. I believe you can write your own decoders for Saleae LA's as plugins, but its not something i've ever looked into, so i'm not sure. |

https://www.saleae.com/downloads/ Looks like a sigrok/pulseview fork. :-// |
